The second in our series of statistics screencasts goes deeper into how to visualize playing time. Where the first edition looked at the history of a team over years, the focus now is on a single player. At the end of this segment we start to discuss how players overlap (or don't, in the case of Emilio Renteria and Tommy Heinemann).

In the next few screencasts we will dive deeper into these player combinations, and identify ways to identify patterns and evaluate team performance under different lineups. As always, I'd love to hear your comments below.

UPDATE: I've finally managed to finagle the line charts into a format suitable for posting. You can download a 424-page PDF booklet of every player, in every season, here.
